LWS Releases XCOM 2 “Alien Pack” Mod

Long War Studios, the developers behind the Long War mod for XCOM: Enemy Unknown and multiple XCOM 2 mods, has released the “Alien Pack” mod for XCOM 2 today. The “Alien Pack” mod adds a host of new enemies to the alien roster – some completely unique and new, while others are variations on existing enemy units. Here’s a rundown of what’s in the mod:

Drone (two variations) – an ADVENT scout and crowd control unit
Naja (three variations) – a subspecies of the Viper that serves as an alien sniper unit
Muton Elite – a version of the Muton much more powerful than its predecessors
Sectoid Commander – an enhanced Sectoid with even greater psionic capabilities
Sidewinder (three variations) – a subspecies of the Viper that serves as a fast and agile flanker
Chryssalid Soldier – a larger and more intimidating variation of the Chryssalid
Hive Queen – an even larger Chryssalid all other Chryssalids bow down to
MEC Archer (two variations) – an ADVENT MEC equipped with long-range weaponry
ADVENT Sentry (three variations) – an ADVENT soldier that has great Overwatch abilities
ADVENT Rocketeer (three variations) – an ADVENT soldier with explosive ordinance
ADVENT Grenadier (three variations) – an ADVENT soldier equipped with flashbangs, fire grenades or acid grenades
ADVENT Gunner (three variations) – an ADVENT soldier with a cannon and the ability to suppress multiple XCOM soldiers at once
Muton Centurion – a variation on the Muton, previously made available in the “Muton Centurion” mod

Additionally, the “Alien Pack” mod adds two upgrades to the Viper unit, as well as an upgrade to the Archon and the standard ADVENT MEC. A configurable system will also be included for changing colors and size on many units, as well as mixing and matching ADVENT soldier components to create your own ADVENT soldier types.

You can download the “Alien Pack” mod right now in the Steam Workshop. The “Alien Pack” replaces the “Muton Centurion” mod. Good luck, Commander.

XCOM 2 is the sequel to XCOM: Enemy Unknown, the 2012 award-winning strategy game of the year.

Earth has changed. Twenty years have passed since world leaders offered an unconditional surrender to alien forces. XCOM, the planet’s last line of defense, was left decimated and scattered. Now, in XCOM 2, the aliens rule Earth, building shining cities that promise a brilliant future for humanity on the surface, while concealing a sinister agenda and eliminating all who dissent from their new order.

Only those who live at the edges of the world have a margin of freedom. Here, a force gathers once again to stand up for humanity. Always on the run, and facing impossible odds, the remnant XCOM forces must find a way to ignite a global resistance, and eliminate the alien threat once and for all.

XCOM ON THE RUN: Take command of the Avenger, an alien supply craft converted to XCOM’s mobile headquarters. New open-ended gameplay lets you decide where to guide your strike team, how to grow popular support, and when to combat enemy counter-operations.
RECRUIT RESISTANCE FIGHTERS: Five soldier classes, each with its own skill tree, let you create specific soldiers for your tactical plan.
TACTICAL GUERRILLA COMBAT: New gameplay systems offer more tactical flexibility in combat. Use concealment to ambush enemy patrols. Loot enemies for precious gear and artifacts. Rescue VIPs and save fallen comrades by carrying them to the extraction point.
A NEW BREED OF ENEMY: A diverse cast of enemies from powerful new alien species to the ADVENT, enforcers of the alien regime, offer a distinct tactical challenge.
RESEARCH, DEVELOP AND UPGRADE: Configure and build rooms on the Avenger to give XCOM new capabilities on the battlefield. Use your Scientists and Engineers to research, develop and upgrade weapons and armor to fit your preferred tactics.
EACH MISSION IS A UNIQUE CHALLENGE: Go on missions around the world, from wildlands to the heart of the alien-controlled megacities, to the depths of alien installations. There are virtually infinite combinations of maps, missions and goals.
CREATE CUSTOM MODS: Community-focused tools allow you to create your own campaign, tactical gameplay, aliens, classes, strategy game features, and share within the Steam Workshop.
ENGAGE IN HEAD-TO-HEAD MULTIPLAYER: Mix-and-match squads of humans and aliens and battle head-to-head on randomly-generated maps.
